Toyah Willcox - World in Action lyrics

(Bogdanovs) Where will you go, when the sirens blow? Will you run helter-skelter, in search of a shelter Or will you lie low? Will you sit there clutching at your lucky charm Or pray to your god to keep you from harm? Maybe you'll believe it's just another false alarm There's a world in action all around us World in action for all to see You'd better hide behind your religion Is there a future for you or for me? The devil's broken out, he's breaking deals Disregard law and order, and head for the border To hide in them hills Will you sit there clutching at the final straw Hoping that your ticket's in the final draw If you read between the lines you'll discover there's a fatal flaw There's a world in action all around us World in action for all to see You'd better hide behind your religion Is there a future, is there a future? World in action, world in action And the leaders in the backroom are counting up the toll It's defend or attack, no turning back 'Till it's out of control Will you turn away and wash your hands Or stand there shaking with your head in the sands? Or leave it to the people who pretend they understand There's a world in action all around us World in action for all to see You'd better hide behind your religion Is there a future for you or for me? World in action all around us World in action for all to see You'd better hide behind your religion Is there a future, is there a future? World in action all around us World in action for all to see You'd better hide behind your religion Is there a future for you or for me?
